B19.1:bind will not bind usinf the -f option.

[Alex Wykel <awykel at channelpoint dot com>]

When binding keys using the -f option (filename) the command appears to 
read the file which is passed but none of the bindings from the file are 
'binded'.

To reproduce:
Create a bind file:

$ bind -p > keybinding.out

Then edit the output file change one of the bindings.  I changed the 
beginning-of-line to "\e[1~"  or the [HOME] key on my computer.  Then I 
saved the file. And tried to use the '-f' option and pass the file to bind.

$ bind -f keybinding.out

Upon trying to use the new binding nothing happened.  Investigating the 
binding for the function showed that the new binding was never made.

$ bind -q beginning-of-line
beginning-of-line can be invoked via "\C-a"

Using the normal bind procedure works fine.

I also noticed that if you process the command from within EMACS using the 
-p option there is no output.  I have not experimented with this enough to 
figure out what the problem is.
